Orangetheory Fitness 60 min HIIT! I was able to hit 12 mph on the treads today!

I say yes to Shakeology but I am a beach body coach! I have also lost 100 pounds

Thank you everyone!!!!! My journey is on Instagram. If you use social media to track your progress I would love to follow you! I need motivation where ever I can get it!!

I figured it out!!

Absolutely!!!!!!! Proof is in the pictures. I lift weights and watch what I eat more than I do cardio.

Yes I do! I still struggle with body image sometimes. I think it takes a while for our brains to catch up to the new us we see in the mirror. My confidence has increased dramatically since I started lifting 5 months ago. I still have my problem areas but I am proud of how far I have come.

I think you have other issues you need to address besides losing weight. You need to learn how to love yourself and the body you are in regardless of size. I have lost 11 pounds of fat but gained 5 pounds of muscle. Not many people notice that, but I do! I'm stronger and fitter and my clothes are loose. My boyfriend has…

Im in.

Finish a 5k under 30 mins.

Ta da!

I don't think using trigger foods as motivation is such a great idea, not to mention, this is a lifestyle.. not a diet. You should be able to eat a burger in moderation whenever you want too as long as you can fit it in your macros and calorie limits.. I would rather have something materalistic. New headphones.. new…

First of all.. you were not fat in any of your before pictures. I think you looked good. Your after pictures are amazing! However, you are equally as beautiful in both.

180?

Its crazy you say this because after my run tonight I was craving bananas! I did 4.1 miles tonight!! Great run tonight! No cramps.

I did have a big breakfast, I may needed to give myself more that 1.5 hours to let it all digest. Thank you everyone for the encouragement and tips.

God, this is the truth!!! I think my ego was hurt more than anything else!

That "stitch" was so awful... It felt like a gremlin was trying to break out of my side. I am trying not to beat myself up over it. I will try again on Tuesday. Hopefully I will be able to work through it if it happens again.

Ha I meant 34.55 .. but its 34 mins and 55 seconds.

I really wanted to eat some candy but I didn't. I am proud to report all day I have been candy free!

I ran 3.1 miles tonight is 34.55 seconds!

Don't focus on the numbers, focus on the changes you are making to make yourself feel better and healthier! Celebrate mini milestones by treating yourself to the things you find rewarding, and above all else, do not become a slave to your scale. The scale is not a reflection of how successful you are! With time and…

Some of us still have to be proposed too haha but hopefully we are all brides to be haha.. Good luck to all of you beautiful fabulous ladies!

It really can get unhealthy, I think we are all taught that success it measured by what we weigh. That is so far from the truth.. I am so thankful some of you found value in this post :smile:

Get you a kettle bell and start doing squats!

I can run a mile, My best time is 9.16 seconds. After that mile however, I am BEAT. I really want to run a 5k. Do you suggest that I keep running my miles and eventually I should be able to keep going to mile 2.. and then eventually 3.. or should I slow down and do the C25K app? Thanks!

I ran my first mile tonight in 10:11 seconds. It may be slow to other people but it was fast to me! I felt super fit after I did it too! Don't let some jerk ruin your stride! You are doing amazing. :)

OK, my two week challenge is to make sure I run at least 3 times a week!

Hi, please add me! I am 5'3 and weigh 150 pounds. My GW is 135. I want to stay 135 with a lower body fat percentage, so I have been meeting with a personal trainer twice a week. I am so glad I found this group! I feel its more discouraging sometimes when I am so close to goal but it feels so far away!

5'3 CW:150lbs GW: 130 I don't know its realistic for me to lose 20 pounds by Christmas, but I will try my best to hit goal!

I am in
